The Hierarchie of the Blessed Angells: Their Names, Orders and Offices by Thomas Heywood

Some angel illustrations:

Previous owner's notes:

Some of the "arguments" dedicated to the spheres of angels and their chiefs:

Some lines dedicated to Lucifer:

Some of it Transcribed: Of the Rebellious, Lucifer is prime Captain and King ; who in the first of Time, From out the feuerall Classes had selected Legions of Angels, with the pride infected, Against Jehovah; and with expedition Hurled them with himself headlong to perdition. And as in his Creation he was fram'd More glorious far than others before-nam'd; More goodly featur'd, beautiful, and bright, And therefore, his name deriv'd from Light

......... I said before that I got to work with an original copy of this book a while ago, and apart from being a lot of fun to read, it's really beautiful! It was dedicated to the Queen Henrietta, and it doesn't seem like Heywood had any interest in angels outside of this massive book, so I guess he was commissioned to write this. Either way, it's really great! There are some full scans of it online, if anyone would like to flip through it too :)

Matin Song

PACK, clouds, away! and welcome, day!   With night we banish sorrow. Sweet air, blow soft; mount, lark, aloft   To give my Love good-morrow! Wings from the wind to please her mind,   Notes from the lark I'll borrow: Bird, prune thy wing! nightingale, sing!   To give my Love good-morrow!       To give my Love good-morrow       Notes from them all I'll borrow.

Wake from thy nest, robin red-breast!   Sing, birds, in every furrow! And from each bill let music shrill   Give my fair Love good-morrow! Blackbird and thrush in every bush,   Stare, linnet, and cocksparrow, You pretty elves, among yourselves   Sing my fair Love good-morrow!       To give my Love good-morrow!       Sing, birds, in every furrow!

Lost Word Of The Day (36)

Scathefire - a destructive #fire or #conflagration #lostwords #obscurewords #logophilia

Serious and destructive fires seem to be becoming more frequent around the world, the result of changing climatic conditions, we are told, and, occasionally, human carelessness or stupidity. It struck me that the English language struggles to differentiate between the intensity of fires and we usually have to resort to explanatory phrases around the noun of fire to illustrate the degree of…

I Sought Thee Round About, O Thou My God!

I sought thee round about, O thou my God! In thine abode. I said unto the earth, "Speak, art thou he?" She answered me "I am not." I inquired of creatures all, In general, Contained therein. They with one voice proclaim That none amongst them challenged such a name. I asked the seas and all the deeps below, My God to know; I asked the reptiles and whatever is In the abyss,-- Even from the shrimp to the leviathan Inquiry ran; But in those deserts which no line can sound, The God I sought for was not to be found. I asked the air if that were he! but lo! It told me "No." I from the towering eagle to the wren Demanded then If any feathered fowl 'mongst them were such; But they all, much Offended with my question, in full choir, Answered, "To find thy God thou must look higher." I asked the heavens, sun, moon, and stars; but they Said, "We obey The God thou seekest." I asked what eye or ear Could see or hear,-- What in the world I might descry or know Above, below; With an unanimous voice, all these things said, "We are not God, but we by him were made." I asked the world's great universal mass If that God was; Which with a mighty and strong voice replied, As stupefied,-- "I am not he, O man! for know that I By him on high Was fashioned first of nothing; thus instated And swayed by him by whom I was created." I sought the court; but smooth-tongued flattery there Deceived each ear; I' the thronged city there was selling, buying, Swearing, and lying; I' the country, craft in simpleness arrayed, And then I said,-- "Vain is my search, although my pains be great; Where my God is there can be no deceit." A scrutiny within myself I then Even thus began: "O man, what art thou?" What more could I say Than dust and clay,-- Frail, mortal, fading, a mere puff, a blast, That cannot last; Enthroned today, tomorrow in an urn, Formed from that earth to which I must return? I asked myself what this great God might be That fashioned me. I answered: The all-potent, sole, immense, Surpassing sense; Unspeakable, inscrutable, eternal, Lord over all; The only terrible, strong, just, and true, Who hath no end, and no beginning knew. He is the well of life, for he doth give To all that live Both breath and being; he is the Creator Both of the water, Earth, air, and fire. Of all things that subsist He hath the list,-- Of all the heavenly host, or what earth claims, He keeps the scroll, and calls them by their names. And now, my God, by thine illumining grace, Thy glorious face (So far forth as it may discovered be) Methinks I see; And though invisible and infinite, To human sight Thou, in thy mercy, justice, truth, appearest, In which, to our frail senses thou comst nearest. O, make us apt to seek and quick to find, Thou, God, most kind! Give us love, hope, and faith, in thee to trust, Thou, God, most just! Remit all our offences, we entreat, Most good! most great! Grant that our willing, though unworthy quest May, through thy grace, admit us 'mongst the blest.

I might not finish this fic but I love Martha & Sheilas dynamic here:

The four exited the mausoleum. The Manor shone in the distance, a warm orange glow from the windows against the midnight navy blue. Jason craned his head to look up the stars. Couldn’t see Martha or Sheila from his strange angle, which made him nervous. Robin had to keep track of the civilians, had to make sure they were safe.

Thomas felt him twisting around on his shoulders and gently repraminded him. “Martha and Sheila are behind us. Martha has Sheila leaning on her shoulder. It’s alright, Jason.”

Sheila wasn’t the one that actually hurt him, there was no reason to fear for Martha. But it still ate at him. She was still part of all of this. “Keep an eye on Martha.” Jason gritted his teeth. He rested his head against Thomas’ shoulder, tried to ignore the jostling as Thomas stepped over branches and roots.

“What did she do?”

“I don’t… want to go into it.”

“You’re right next to my ear, son. No better time to tell me.” Thomas huffed out a laugh, it was so very Bruce.

“She… she sold me to this man who tortured me. Tried to kill me. Well, he did kill me. And he tried to kill her too. But I saved her, because I took that stupid vow. I… I should have just left her in the coffin. It’s the least of what she deserves.”

“You said you were in worse shape before.”

“Yeah. My… I felt my own skull cave in. That was… a funny feeling.”

Thomas hummed. He slowed, spun on his heels. Jason tried to hold onto his lunch. “Martha, dear.”

“Hm?” Martha looked up from where she was helping Sheila avoid roots.

“Let’s get Sheila all patched up and send her on her way.” He used the hand holding Jason’s leg to point towards Jason’s face. “It’s just a bit of dead weight, isn’t it?’

Martha furrowed her brows. She helped Sheila lean against a tree and stepped up to Thomas.

“What’s this about, love?” Martha asked. A hand on his face. He shut his eyes and took a breath.

“She’s a bit of a Leave Her To Heaven type, I’m afraid. We– we’ve got my tie, some branches. Let’s splint her leg and, if she makes it to the house on her own, that’s her own decision to cross me.”

Martha’s eyes narrowed. She nodded in understanding. Gave him a small peck on the nose as she undid his tie. Apologized softly for jostling Jason as he grunted in pain.

“Sheila, since you’re a doctor, you know how to splint a fracture, right?” Martha called, the tie looped in her fingers. “My dear husband has his hands full with your lovely son.” She smiled. Scooped up two sticks as she stepped closer.

Sheila nodded. Looked concerned but she sank to the forest floor anyway. Martha handed over the tie and the sticks. Sheila started wrapping her leg.

“That’s… an interesting technique.” Martha clicked her tongue. “Where did you study?”

“Gotham General. Same as your ‘dear husband’.” Sheila glared back at her. “But, he hasn’t practiced in years so he’s probably out of date.”

“Oh, I doubt that. Something a simple as a splint is pretty standard.” Martha put her hands on the wrapping and re-tied the knot. Sheila grunted in pain as she cinched the fabric around.

“Excuse me, what the hell are you doing?”

“I think it’d be best if you limped over to Gotham General on your own, dear.” Martha patted her leg. “If you want that to heal correctly, I mean.”

“Bruce knows first aid, he can help me and he’s right up there–”

“Oh, I hardly doubt he’d let you on the premises after how you treated his boy.” Martha tilted her head.

Sheila scowled. She pushed herself upright and grabbed a branch to use as a crutch. “I deserve to know what I’m being accused of.”

“You tried to kill Jason.” Thomas fixed her with an angry gaze.

“Bruce buried me next to him. My– my plaque says Beloved Mother. Would it say that if it wasn’t true? Don’t you think your son, with all his power, would have known if I was some terrible killer?”

“He’s a boy. He makes mistakes.” Martha nodded.

“I’m injured. You think I did this to myself?”

“I don’t know you at all, Sheila.”

Sheila’s breathing was becoming more desperate and erratic. “You don’t know him either! You’re trusting some kid over me. He’s, he’s throwing a tantrum. We were arguing, we got into a car accident… Which sounds more far fetched: a car accident, or some motherfucker named Joker?”

Jason shut his eyes. “Let her come with us. She’s– she’s still my mom.”

“He knows he’s lying! Why don’t we leave him here?”

Martha turned away, placed a hand on Thomas’ arm. “Let’s go, love.”

Sheila screamed, hobbling along behind them.

Jason took a breath. “Stop.” Thomas stopped. “She’s… she’s still my mother. I… I flew overseas to find her. She–”

Martha brushed his hair from his face and smiled softly. “I’ll be your mother now, Jason.”

“I promised her…” Jason shifted around slightly to look at her. She looked defeated, broken. Could see his own fear and desperation in her features. “I’m Robin. That’s my whole job. Saving people.”

“I don’t trust her.” Martha shook her head. “How do we know it won’t happen again? I’d rather leave her out here. She can still walk. She can… find her own way. If she makes it to the house, we can revisit the conversation.”

Jason nodded. Settled back against Thomas. “Alright.”

Martha kissed his forehead and he felt something warm and peaceful settle in his gut.

Thomas kept walking. Martha kept a hand on his arm. Jason kept getting whifs of her perfume and the stuffy coffin must. The green grass and dirt, Thomas’ cologne. It felt like family.

[nicosraf]

quite certain you've probably had this ask before and have answered it but what books/specific sections of the bible do you recommend reading for angel research? and are there any good websites/other sources/other religious texts outside of the bible?

Hello!

Off the top of my head, I would say the biblical books that are more angel-related than others are Genesis, Ezekiel, Job, Revelation.... hmmm I would say the gospels tend to mention angels being physically present quite a bit too — like when Jesus leaves the desert and the angels run to comfort him (very cute of them btw). And, of course, you might want to take a look at the Book of Enoch.

One non-Bible source I remember very well is The City of God by Saint Augustine, specifically Book 11. For a secondary source on Augustine, I highly recommend Augustine's Theology of Angels by Elizabeth Klein.

I like Augustine's stuff in general, and I personally try to look for angel mentions in theological/philosophical work before Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite's Celestial Hierarchy (which took over western christian angel understanding). I do still recommend reading Celestial Hierarchy mostly because it's what you're going to find in every single angel-focused book/site.

I don't really have website recs for that above reason but I do make use of Christian q&a sites a lot because they tend to stick very strictly to what the Bible says and I like knowing what the contemporary consensus tends to be about angels for Christians.

Also, I really like to crawl along JSTOR and I'd really like to set up a list of my favorite articles to share, but it'll take a while. I really recommend reading a source — for example, Thomas Heywood's The Hierarchie of the Blessed Angells, which I quite like – then looking it up on JSTOR to understand what the historical context behind it is and what it might be responding to (researching Heywood's book is what made me see why the 9-level angel hierarchy concept has been so persistent in angelology).

One JSTOR paper I'll go ahead and link now is this one about angel Lucifer's beauty that I like very much.

Anyway, I swear one day I'll have a very neat organized database of sources......... I Swear.

Michael Holt (Mister Terrific) has taken it upon himself to set up the unclaimed teens at a metahuman friendly boarding school, Charlton Academy, where they'll mix it up with modern age youths. They'll rediscover the drag that is school, and, eventually commit to fighting for the freedom of today's future. Hijinks ensue.

⤷ Let’s play with time for this challenge. Picture your story as if it has always taken place in a different time, throw your oc into a time loop, or have them somehow travel through time.

In which the next generation of legends find the Waverider, broken, and attempt to travel back in time to fix their reality, convinced that it’s the wrong future. Except nothing is ever simple for the legends, and these nine kids (because, really, they are still kids) find themselves stranded in their parents’ past, long before they ever came to be.
